    Our Hotel in Amsterdam

    Our hotel Homeland Pension was a lovely little hotel that was tucked away behind the Maritime museum and adjacent to a park. The building used to be the Dutch Navy officer’s housing. The staff were very nice and accommodating and they made our stay there very enjoyable. There was a resident cat called Amy and the hotel manager’s dog Rufus was also a regular. Plus being Europe people can also bring their pets to the restaurant, bar or in fact have them in their room. Such a different approach to animals here.

    The hotel was very funky with lovely little spots to sit and enjoy the surrounds. The hotel also has the slowest lift. So now I have been to a hotel with the smallest lift Petite Madeleine in Paris and Homeland takes the prize for the slowest.    Read more
